Are ya ready? OK! Let’s play!
Famous until now, Democrat Congressman Charlie Rangel has been convicted of no less than 11 counts of ethics violations, today, and much of the media suddenly doesn’t know anything about him or this case. Suddenly he’s unknown. And he’ll certainly lose his label of “Democratic Party” or “D”.
Ethics Panel Finds Rangel Guilty on 11 Violations of House Rules
…The congressional panel, sitting as a jury, found that Rangel had used House stationery and staff to solicit money for a New York college center named after him. It also concluded he solicited donors for the center with interests before the Ways and Means Committee, leaving the impression the money could influence official actions.
He also was found guilty of failing to disclose at least $600,000 in assets and income in a series of inaccurate reports to Congress; using a rent-subsidized New York apartment for a campaign office, when it was designated for residential use; and failure to report to the IRS rental income from a housing unit in a Dominican Republic resort….
Funny: The caption says “I’m going to have to excuse myself” — but not to worry, Charlie — the liberal media will do that for you. Just have a seat.
CBC and other liberal-left media: Here’s another tidbit to hide from Canadians, found buried at the very bottom of the CNN story about Rangel!
Ready? Let’s play!
…Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters of California is also scheduled to have an adjudication hearing with the House ethics committee this month, on November 29. Waters has denied the allegations against her, which include steering federal bailout money to Massachusetts-based OneUnited Bank—in which her husband had a financial stake.
So far, neither of these stories appear on CBC’s web site or CTV’s website this morning. Or National Post, where I imagine editor Jonathon Kay is still reeling at and scathing and scorning Fox News Channel’s Glenn Beck, having only started yesterday. Yes, Glenn Beck. For his honest, well-researched, credible, and indefatigable work exposing far-leftist George Soros.
